You must be very proud. I know I would be.
My son got to meet and pose with Governor L Douglas Wilder during the ceremony marking the anniversary of the Religious Freedom Act, penned by Thomas Jefferson.
I got to shake his hand. That's the closest I've been to an elected official.

I met "old" President Bush at a campaign event at my college, when he was running for re-election as Vice President. I uttered the immortal words, "Wow! It's nice to meet you, Mr. Vice President! I hope you win!" I'm sure he remembers me :-).
